Precedent, said to be sacred by leftists in regards to stuff they made up, is said to be irrelevant in regards to stuff that is actually in the Constitution.
Multiple states would ban abortion in a substantial number of circumstances.
Casey is the prevailing pro-abortion decision, however, Roe remains a convenient way to refer to all pro-abortion decisions.
Leaving aside all the political tumult it caused and any moral considerations, Roe v Wade was possibly THE least well-reasoned, most ill-informed decision ever to come out of that court. Had it not caused so much damage for decades now, it would be laughable.
No kidding
Right to privacy argument
It should have stayed up to the states like weed
I’d prefer completely outlawed but just overturning Roe would be excellent
The reasoning that the Right to Privacy translates into Slaughtering a six-month-old baby by crushing his or her skull, escapes me.
Just great. Now Joy and her gaggle of loons are going to want to wear Penumbra hats! First they came for my vagina... Don't be touchin' my penumbra now!!!
“Multiple states would ban abortion in a substantial number of circumstances.”
Yes that is true but no state will outright ban first
trimester abortions and you can take it to the bank. Besides Roberts is not going to vote to overturn RvW you take that to the bank too.
Ron Paul’s 2005 Sanctity of Life bill nukes abortion at the federal level and returns it to the states. No SCOTUS needed.
Sounds like Danny’s auditioning for FOX.
“They also like to redefine words when legislating.”
You mean, like, marriage?
Who’s the other?
You are wrong.
Some states would ban abortion from conception forward.
Take that to the bank.
LOL - not telling. I don’t want to look like a fan...
This isn't a good talking point all of a sudden. In the last two or three weeks, the Supreme Court effectively overturned Korematsu vs United States (Japanese internment) and Abood vs Detroit Board of Education (compulsory union dues), and via Carpenter vs United States (cell tower records) has put Smith vs Maryland (phone call records), United States vs Miller (bank records), and Katz vs United States (the so-called bogus "third party doctrine") on a much shorter leash.
Except the declaration has no power of law. It’s just a nice letter to the King.
Indeed. May I suggest to any whipper-snappers that this article is a good start on the specifics of why it's a bad decision:

As I have been saying the LEFT is so afraid of RvW being overturned because it is extra constitutional and the LEFT knows it.
Brown v Board of Education broke precedent.
You bolster your argument with precedent when you agree with the precedent. Otherwise, no.
The only thing that matters is its adherence to the Constitution.
